Preview: Abdallah Mubiru on the Wheel
Abdallah Mubiru will be eyeing a perfect start at KCCA FC as his side visit Busoga United at FUFA technical centre in Njeru.
Mubiru, a highly regarded figure within Ugandan football circles, replaced sacked Sergio Traguil.
He returns to KCCA where he not only coached but also played and his appointment follows a challenging start for the team that currently sit second from the bottom.
However, a glimmer of hope emerged with their recent uplifting 3-1 victory over arch-rivals and defending champions, Vipers.
The arrival of Mubiru brings renewed optimism and anticipation for better days ahead for KCCA, as they aim to improve their performance and achieve more favorable outcomes under his guidance.
Meanwhile, Busoga United finds themselves with seven points from their seven games this season but has struggled to find the back of the net in their home fixtures.
Despite a goalless encounter in their previous season, KCCA has historically shown prowess against Busoga United, having secured victory in their last five away encounters against them.
